i dont know if this is the place to post this but anyways i was wondering what is the best digital video camera i should get........but i cant spend over $600..

thanks clay

 
check ebay and check best buy for open items...or u could just buy a kinda shitty one...Open items are the best, I got a dvd/receiever and 5 speakers and a sub which was originally 450 for 180

Why do you guys say, 'I have to take a shit' when you just leave it there?' JF learning english
 
yeah Definately check out ebay because you can get camcorders that are new for half the price.

check out panasonic.. they have cheap mini dv camcorders... I just got the sony trv11 mini dv camcorder from circut city for 600$ (it was there display model, they usually reatil for like 1100$)But check out circut city... they are selling a lot of demos right now for some reason. and bwayphoto.com has reasonable prices too.

 
thats a hard one most digital cameras are about w875207340237502347450397dollars try panasonic. or a sony digital 8.

I recommend Canon.

Me and some friends got a ZR10 for like 500$.

The lenses are supposed to be better but I haven't used any other brands.

 
okay, so i am in the amrket for one now, how much should I pay for one, and is ebay reliable for stuff like that? I have gotten smaller thing and it usually works fine

Also, what make/model should I try to find?

 
I looked around for a while and was going to buy canon or panasonic but I ended up getting a JVC. It's a fairly low-end camera as far as extras go but it's got a 680,000 pixel CCD (fairly standard for 1 CCD cameras), it takes still pics, and it's got a built in light (that extra cash for most other cameras). For the price I paid I am very happy and I wouldn't bother getting anything better until I can afford a 3CCD camera.

 
dv cameras are expensive. my low end model JVC is like $1100 CDN... tooooo much.

my friend bought this one for 2600 and it wasnt worth it i used it more than him i didnt know what he was thinking when he bought it sold it for like 1500 so he lost like 1100 dollars (well his mom did) but anywayz a camera is a camera if you spend over a 1000 that ridiculous if you drop it in the snow and warranty wont cover it and its 2500 dollar camera your screwed 2500 dollars.

dont buy a mini DV, the tapes are super expensive go for a 'digital 8' the picture is better than a regular hi8, and i suggest sony

 
I got my panasonic dv camera on boxing day it retailed for $1200 and I got it 4 like $800 and something dollars

 
deff. save up and get a miniDV. Everything else is not worth your time and money right now.

I use a Sony vx2000...a damn as fucking sweet camera...second probably only to the xl and gl

mini dv tapes are like $25 CDN. but the quality you get on them is good.
